Technical Abstract

The present disclosure provides a positioning method of a target node in a wireless ad hoc network, including: performing an initial positioning to obtain a first positioning result for the target node; determining, based on the first positioning result and a second positioning result for an other node in the wireless ad hoc network, whether a positioning error exists in the first positioning result or not, wherein the second positioning result at least contains an accurate second positioning result; and calculating a third positioning result for the target node based on the accurate second positioning result, in response to determining a positioning error exists in the first positioning result. The present disclosure further provides a positioning apparatus of a target node in a wireless ad hoc network, an electronic device, and a storage medium.
